  1. ER ethics

    UMTXRN replied to UMTXRN's topic in Patient Safety Issues
    Thanks so much for all your advice and responses. That clears things up for me. I just felt so sorry for the boy who was getting the staples. It's good to know this is a common practice. AND I was not aware that lidocaine was so painful. BTW, we do not give it before starting IV's either. Anyway, thanks again for the tips.

  2. ER ethics

    UMTXRN posted a topic in Patient Safety Issues
    I have a quick question. I'm a new grad with very little ER experience. I have been working with a Doc who has done several things that I'm concerned about, but I'm not sure if I should be. First question, Don't physicians normally use lidocaine before applying sutures and or staples? Second, Advice please. This is a tiny hospital, if I had issues with this guy, what is the BEST way to go about getting things changed without everyone knowing I was the one reporting it. Has anyone else been through a similar situation?
